Berserker

Dev Note In today's update, Succession Berserker has been improved to deal powerful damage when using the Prime: Devastation and Ultimate: Frenzied Destroyer, which applies extra attack damage from Frenzied Destroyer, in combo. And considering the long cooldown of Prime: Fearsome Tyrant, its damage has been increased.

Musa

Valkyrie

Witch

Dev Note Awakening Witch has a combat style that involves using the high-damage, short-cooldown Fissure Wave during the cooldown periods of other skills and incorporating additional skills in between. To address Witch's perceived lack of attack damage, we have increased the damage of skills other than Fissure Wave.

Lahn

Archer

Dev Note Archers have been using the Ensnare, which has low damage and a long casting time, to acquire the Critical Hit Rate Increase buff. So we resolved this by moving the Critical Hit Rate Increase buff to the easy-to-use Gaping Darkness, making it easier to acquire the buff than before. Additionally, when Archer engaged in PvE, the majority of the damage came from the Crossbow skills Covering Fire, Earth Shatter, and Sunfall. However, the damage of Arrow Explosion, Bolt of Radiance, and Greatbow skills has been increased so that you can deal considerable damage during combat.

Dark Knight

Guardian

Dev Note We have improved Succession Guardian's main combo skills such as Mountain Slam, Avalanche Strike, and Black Blood Circle, by increasing their damage. This allows for higher efficiency in various Monster Zones than before. Additionally, the damage of the Claw Reveal, which served to fill the gaps between skills, has also been partially supplemented to ensure stable PvE when using various combos.

Drakania

Maegu

Dev Note Before the Skill Add-on Update, Succession Maegu, with its main skills with Tier 3 skill add-ons such as Spirit Swirl and Bristling Sparks, could easily apply the Tier 3 add-on effect and engage in PvE. However, now all classes have been improved to receive high add-on effects without much difference. And the overall PvE balance adjustments are active. As a result, the damage of Succession Maegu has become insufficient, so we have increase it with the Spirit Swirl, Bristling Sparks, Heavenward Dance, and Nukduri Dance.
